keem Jeffries. Hakeem Jeffries unfortunately has what I call evil character face, and there's nothing racial about this in case you want to jump to that. This is nothing racial, but his eyes—his eyes look like he was created in a laboratory to be Dr. Evil squared. And every time he talks, I think to myself, really? That's your leader? You pick the only person who looks like he's planning to kill y…

So you say to him, here's the deal. If you keep fighting, we'll keep supplying the very best American technology to drones and robots, and you're going to be having an all-robot war, and you will not be able to keep up with our technology. You have really good technology, but you're not going to keep up with our technology. So the war is going to go from humans on humans, where Russia has an enormous advantage, to high-tech versus high-tech only, in which Russia has a disadvantage. And you know what? The United States gets practice. Not only do we make money selling our goods, but we get practice. And we get practical information back about what worked and what didn't.
I don't think that Putin would want to enter an era in which it wasn't humans against humans and it's robots against his humans or robots against his worst robots because I don't think China is going to give them the good stuff. Do you? Or if they did, maybe not enough of it. So that would be the thing I would add is like, look, Putin, you better settle up now or you're going to be talking to the robots. And you know that's true.
There was a poll, Politico talking about a Citizen Center of Possibility Lab poll on whether Californians would go along with Gavin Newsom's idea to redistrict in a special election. Now, normally the way they would redistrict is California has an independent commission to do that. I'm sure it's not super independent. I think "independent" is sort of maybe not exactly 100% accurate, but maybe better than whatever they're doing now or trying to do.
So surprisingly, the questions were two questions. One, do you support keeping the independent redistricting commission? And number two, do you support returning congressional redistricting authority to state legislators? And only 36% of voters supported giving the legislature back that power. So you might presume that that means that if Newsom does his special election to get the power to do it early instead of using the redistricting commission that the voters would reject it.
But Newsom tries to lie and tell you that they're not planning to get rid of the Independent Redistricting Commission. But what he doesn't say is what they are planning is to ignore it. They're not planning to get rid of it. Oh no, we're not going to get rid of it. That's crazy talk. No, we're just going to do the redistricting without it. So Newsom is actually trying to sell the idea that w

e're keeping the Congressional Redistricting Commission at the same time that he's pushing to ignore them. He's trying to sell that. Good luck. So I'm hoping Californians can see through it and maybe turn down that redistricting thing, but I don't know if that poll is telling us what we need to know about that. According to the New York Post, 75 homeless camps in Washington DC have been cleared.…
